The Daily Grind - Day Forty Two

Wednesday 13th July 2011

Morning all,
Busy day today with Killteam being released on the arcade, next phase of the firelands quests in WOW should unlock for me and of course 2-3 levels away from finishing Uncharted 2.

Nothing major to report this morning to be fair, well I don't think there is anyway since I cannot see anything on twitter or the news feeds. Just drinking a cup of tea right now and loading up CivWorld to see what's happened while I've been away.

Actually maybe not since the blasted thing won't connect, oh well moving on I think it will be best to get the dailies done on World of Warcraft first. Very excited to unlock the next phase, as I said the other day I will be going with the Druids of the Talon since I'm guessing that will open up flight type missions which would be awesome.

--------------------------------------------------------

It was pretty cool area that as opened up but I was expecting a lot more flight missions, I understand why there isn't since flying in the firelands is hard thanks to the elements. Basically can now earn around 30 marks a day, so it will take this time around five days and so that means around Sunday/Monday for the next phase. The quests are pretty cool but mostly involve killing fire phonenixs and other monsters, catching eggs as well which I'm guessing will lead to flight missions later.

Did get really disappointed earlier, found one of the new rare spawns when doing my mission and could not take it down. It was only one level above me and I can understand it was a elite boss but still I had no chance, got it down by 30-40% health and it just owned me. Knew I was a bit poor playing my class but not this bad, really could do with getting some better gear to improve my stats so I have a better chance. There is always next time I guess, well knowing my luck I won't see that spawn again.

--------------------------------------------------------

!!!!!!!!!!!Spoiler Alert!!!!!!!!

Anyway with that done and over with I'm going to jump onto Uncharted 2, sure I was on level 24 and I just found out there is only 26 levels in total, so I'm in the end game now. Would love to clock this game today, in fact that that's my goal. Enough talking anyway time to game!

That turned out well, loaded up and died...when I saved I just cleared this large room but the save must only revert you to the last checkpoint which was the start of the battle. Making my way through the room again now and just got my 30 kills with grenades trophy for my trouble.

Schafer as died thanks to Lazarevic...pay back time!

--------------------------------------------------------

Man that area was annoying, I died on the roof while taking on a group of guys and it then respawned me on a balcony right next to them. When I finished them off a massive group of heavy armoured military spawn with a rocket launcher and grenade launcher for back up. Five times it took me to finish them off by charging close and grabbing a grenade launcher off the floor.

--------------------------------------------------------

That was luckily and awesome at the same time, the next area contained two guys with full plate armour and mini guns. Had several grenades left in the launcher and found a rocket launcher, then when they died a huge wave appeared but still had ammo for the rocket launcher and of course now got the gatling gun!

--------------------------------------------------------

Right I'm going to stop writing now because I don't want to spoil the ending for anyone, but so far its 100% awesome!

--------------------------------------------------------

Well Uncharted 2 is finished and love the ending, was not expecting that at all. Loved every minute and could not stop playing it, I really do feel ashamed with myself for not playing this sooner. If you looking for a good adventure game with a great story then look no futher because I recommend everyone to try this game out, its in my top ten now!

Anyway with that done I think it's time to update my challenges and progress for the year to see how I'm doing.

--------------------------------------------------------

For my year progress that was game number 34 that's been completed, very chuffed with that! and I walked away with one gold, four silver and thirteen bronze trophies. Not bad to say I was not going after trophies in this playthrough just to enjoy the game instead, will have to go back and work on the missing stuff at a later date. Would love to get a platinum on both Uncharted games.

On the summer challenges that was number four and leaves me with 29% done, but to be honest only Assassin's Creed Brotherhood matters since Oblivion is not really a direct prequel. So one more game to do and I'm ready for all the sequels that are coming out this year!

On that note I better go get ready and leave for work, will catch you all later so see you soon!

--------------------------------------------------------

Well I'm back but man its late, currently 11.35pm and I'm really too tired to start anything new. I do want to get into Assassin's Creed and download Killteam but think I will hit the sack since got work early tomorrow then can have a fresh start when I get back from work. Catch you all tomorrow, have a good one!
